Dick has still another job driving a truck when he sees a small plane go down. So, of course, he heroically rescues both people before the plane explodes. The woman is basically unharmed, but the guy has a broken leg and some internal injuries. Dick patches him up and disappears. The guy turns out to be a candidate for senator and the woman is the wife of his campaign manager. The grateful politician puts out a reward for the missing hero, and although Dick could use the money, he doesn't come forward. He also doesn't leave the area even though there is a sketch of his face on the front page. And this sketch causes the cops to ID the fugitive, but for some reason, Gerard is not notified. Anyways, the politician, Glenn, seems like a nice guy, but he is, after all, a politician. His wife has been driven to drink, his manager has no idea that Glenn is fooling around with his wife, and all of this has to hit the fan. Anyways, Glenn, in his sick bed, pushes his wife who bumps her head and dies. He sends Dick on his way in the middle of the night, and then tells his unsuspecting manager that Kimble killed the woman and manipulates him into taking off to kill him. So he eliminates his wife and manager and gets to keep his mistress. And his career. Meanwhile, Dick drives off without any sense of urgency for some reason, and the mistress, who is portrayed as a victim of the charming Glenn, calls the car's phone to warn Dick that her husband is coming with bad intentions. Good thing that car had a phone. Dick proceeds to wreck the car but fortunately is not at all injured. He gives the phone to the guy before the guy can shoot him, and peace is made. The marriage is apparently saved, Glenn is apparently ruined, and Richard Kimble is definitely still.....a fugitive.
